About Callook.info

Callook.info is a lookup tool for U.S. amateur radio callsigns. Users enter a callsign and receive associated registration information, including geographic coordinates derived from the Bing Maps API and a grid square calculated from those coordinates.

The service provides programmatic access through an API, with output available in plain text, XML, JSON, and JSONP formats, alongside the standard web interface, a barebones view, and a browser search plugin.

Callook is intended for licensed amateur radio operators and others needing to verify or look up U.S. callsign information. It is maintained by Josh Dick (W1JDD) and accepts donations to support hosting costs.
